Hopefully this will be the last posting on the mystery News & Notes spam, and the problem will magically fix itself. Our crack IT staff looked into it by having examining the header on the multiple postings to the TnF list. Here's what they had to say:
"Very strange. It doesn't appear that the messages are being sent by us (no usatf.org addresses and none of our IP address are showing up in the headers). I checked our server that we use to send to the media lists, and it wasn't sending any messages." So it looks like at this point we can cross our fingers and pray to the Darkwing gods that the madness will stop! -----Original Message----- From: Mike Prizy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 3:30 PM To: Lee Nichols Cc: USATF Communications; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: t-and-f: USATF News & Notes: August 5, 2002 Or, the lesson is: Don't piss off your intern if he has a minor in computer technology.
